Title: Frisky back on the road
Post by: Mark Green on April 28, 2013, 07:25:56 pm

I was a great day yesterday, weather was great and we took the Frisky out for its first test drive in over 30 years. I forgot how much fun it was to drive and the looks people give you as you go bye. Now to do some fine adjustments and get the licenses plates and we are ready to go!

Excellent Mark congratulations its a credit to all your hard work.

If the ghost of "Wacky" Arnolt is looking down (or up!) he will be very surprised to see a FriskySport running round his home town again!!

Well done

John

A Prince among Friskys, except it is not, if you see what I mean. A Vice President among Friskys just does not sound the same. Republic-ism has its bad points too.

Well done Mark, looks and sounds great and worth the wait.  One of the very few Sports on the road in the world  :o. 
I am very envious.  Some day my red Sport might look and sound as good, but it might take me 30 years as well. ???
